Jenny Sinclair's new CD "One More Time": A delightful musical accomplishment
London,

Sinclair' CD "One More Time", a tribute to the legendary Carpenters was
released recently in England. While listening to Ms Sinclair's voice,
I had to wonder who was really singing? Sinclair or Karen Carpenter? For
Sinclair and Karen Carpenter voices are almost identical. Even amazingly
similar. Is it a plus or a minus for the ascending British country music star?
Only times will tell. However, one thing is most certain. Jenny Sinclair is
blessed with a warm, sweet and truthful voice. She might lack vocal cords
strength, but the beauty and limpidity of her voice are remarkable. Perhaps,
intentionally, Ms Sinclair did not make use of vocal ardour, for her message
of tenderness, affection and hope came crystal clear through her tender
and well-polished voice. Vocal strength was substituted by delicate beauty and
affectionate musical warmth.

Perhaps, this is what exactly Ms Sinclair intended to do. A message of tenderness and sweetness. And she succeeded in doing so. It is evident that, the clarity and delightfulness of Sinclair's voice shined in the song "Sweet Child of Mine", which she composed personally. "One More Time" is a fine product; a very promising creativity. Talent, vocal beauty and honest individual composition surrounded the CD. The lyrics are simple, yet nourished with affection, serenity, a joyful sorrow and hope. The musical arrangement is rich, but not overwhelming. The accompaniment is very a propos. And of course, Ms Sinclair's captivating and charmingly tender voice crowned this musical accomplishment. Reviewers: Myrna Hughes and Maximillien de Lafayette.
